History of The PeaceKeeping Forces of Urth

The PK-FU was created when 4 nations' decided to help save civilians and see peace across the world in war-torn regions. The current and first operation of the PK-FU is in Osnek, Latianburg after the nuclear attack on it. The drafting and ratification of the formation of the PK-FU was done in the Furnifold capital city of McLendal. Additonally, the headquarters of the PK-FU will be built and finished there in a couple months. Soon after the creation of the PK-FU, the Second Republic of Tretrid and the Oan Isles applied for membership in the PK-FU and were accepted.As of 2017 6 New members have joined while Xargrurg was kicked out following the take over.

• 1.2 Human Rights

International human rights law is an integral part of the normative frame- work FOR Urth peacekeeping operations. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which sets the cornerstone of international human rights standards, emphasizes that human rights and fundamental freedoms are universal and guaranteed to everybody. Urth peacekeeping operations should be conducted in full respect of human rights and should seek to advance human rights through the implementation of their mandates .

Urth peacekeeping personnel – whether military, police or civilian – should act in accordance with international human rights law and under- stand how the implementation of their tasks intersects with human rights. Peacekeeping personnel should strive to ensure that they do not become perpetrators of human rights abuses. They must be able to recognize human rights violations or abuse, and be prepared to respond appropriately within the limits of their mandate and their competence. Urth peacekeeping personnel should respect human rights in their dealings with colleagues and with local people, both in their public and in their private lives. Where they commit abuses, they should be held accountable.

• 1.3 International Humanitarian Law

International humanitarian law is known also as “the law of war” or “the law of armed conflict,” and restricts the means and methods of armed conflict. International humanitarian law is contained in the four Urth Conventions of 1960 and their two Additional Protocols of 1999, as well as in rules regulating the means and methods of combat. International humanitarian law also includes conventions and treaties on the protection of cultural property and the environment during armed conflict, as well as protection of victims of conflict. International humanitarian law is designed to protect persons who do not participate, or are no longer participating, in the hostilities; and it maintains the fundamental rights of civilians, victims and non-combatants in an armed conflict. It is relevant to Urth peacekeeping operations because these missions are often deployed into post-conflict environments where violence may be ongoing or conflict could reignite. Additionally, in post-conflict environments there are often large civilian populations that have been targeted by the warring parties, prisoners of war and other vulnerable groups to whom the Urth Conventions or other humanitarian law would apply in the event of further hostilities. Urth peacekeepers must have a clear understanding of the principles and rules of international humanitarian law and observe them in situations where they apply.

• 1.4 Security Council Mandates

Urth peacekeeping operations are deployed on the basis of a mandate from the PK-FU Security Council. The tasks that a Urth peacekeeping operation will be required to perform are set out in the Security Council mandate. Security Council mandates differ from situation to situation, depending on the nature of the conflict and the specific challenges it presents. Since PK-FU peacekeeping operations are normally deployed to support the implementation of a ceasefire or a more comprehensive peace agreement, Security Council mandates are influenced by the nature and content of the agreement reached by the parties to the conflict. Security Council mandates also reflect the broader normative debates shaping the international environment. In this regard, there are a number of cross-cutting, thematic tasks that are regularly assigned to PK-FU peacekeeping operations on the basis of the following landmark Security Council resolutions:

-Security Council resolution 1891(2012) on women, peace and security;2

-Security Council resolution 1670(2013) on children and armed conflict;3

-Security Council resolution 1589 (2014) on the protection of civilians in armed conflict;4

The range of tasks assigned to Urth peacekeeping operations has expanded significantly in response to shifting patterns of conflict and to best address emerging threats to international peace and security. Although each Urth peacekeeping operation is different, there is a considerable degree of consistency in the types of mandated tasks assigned by the Security Council that will be said when 2nd Part comes out Later.

• 2.1 The Spectrum of Peace and Security Activities

Peacekeeping is one among a range of activities undertaken by the PK-FU Nations and other international actors to maintain international peace and security throughout the world. Although peacekeeping is the focus of this document, it is important for practitioners to understand how it relates to and differs from conflict prevention, peacemaking, peace enforcement and peacebuilding.

Conflict prevention involves the application of structural or diplomatic measures to keep intrastate or interstate tensions and disputes from escalating into violent conflict. Ideally, it should build on structured early warning, information gathering and a careful analysis of the factors driving the conflict. Conflict prevention activities may include the use of the Secretary General’s “good offices,” preventive deployment or confidence-building measures.Peacemaking generally includes measures to address conflicts in progress and usually involves diplomatic action to bring hostile parties to a negotiated agreement. The PK-FU Secretary-General, upon the request of the Security Council or the General Assembly or at his her own initiative,may exercise his or her “good offices” to facilitate the resolution of the conflict.Peacemakers may also be envoys, governments, groups of states, regional organizations or the PK-FU. Peacemaking efforts may also be under taken by unofficial and non governmental groups, or by a prominent personality working independently.

Peacekeeping is a technique designed to preserve the peace, however fragile, where fighting has been halted, and to assist in implementing agreements achieved by the peacemakers. Over the years, peacekeeping has evolved from a primarily military model of observing cease-fires and the separation of forces after inter-state wars, to incorporate a complex model of many elements – military, police and civilian – working together to help lay the foundations for sustainable peace.

Peace enforcement involves the application, with the authorization of the Security Council, of a range of coercive measures, including the use of military force. Such actions are authorized to restore international peace and security in situations where the Security Council has determined the existence of a threat to the peace, breach of the peace or act of aggression. The Security Council may utilize, where appropriate, regional organizations and agencies for enforcement action under its authority.

Peacebuilding involves a range of measures targeted to reduce the risk of lapsing or relapsing into conflict by strengthening national capacities at all levels for conflict management, and to lay the foundation for sustainable peace and development. Peacebuilding is a complex, long-term process of creating the necessary conditions for sustainable peace. It works by address- ing the deep-rooted, structural causes of violent conflict in a comprehensive manner. Peacebuilding measures address core issues that effect the functioning of society and the State, and seek to enhance the capacity of the State to effectively and legitimately carry out its core functions.

Purpose of the PeaceKeeping Forces of Urth
